Re: Cry...

Yaknow, "above DSL speeds" could mean an *increase* in connectin speeds for those throttled . I mean, Qwest has 20 Mbps DSL and 5 Mbps in most places, Windstream has 12 Mbps DSL...I have 8 Mbps Comcast w\PowerBoost so it all depends on how you interpret "above DSL speeds"

HaHaHa! They mean the new FCC definition of "broadband" speed (768Kbps), I'm sure...

Re: Cry...

Nah, they at least mean 1.5 Mbps, because that seems to be the usual quote of DSL speed. Still not too bad (T1 speed) but it's not what you're payin' fer!
